SingaporeAges 21–75 - NCT03541785Enrolling by invitation
Using NGAL to guide fluids and start kidney-filtering in children
This study tests whether measuring a urine protein called NGAL can help doctors choose the right fluid amount and decide when to start a kidney-filtering treatment called CRRT in critically ill children with kidney injury. If it works, it may help treat kidney problems sooner and more safely.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 3 months–25 years - NCT03530852Recruiting
RELIZORB test for children needing tube feeding and IV nutrition
This study tests whether RELIZORB helps children with short bowel syndrome (SBS), who rely on IV nutrition (and also tube feeding), absorb fats better. It is an open-label study over 90 days, meaning everyone gets the study treatment and outcomes are compared over time.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 2–18 - NCT03415620Recruiting
Music listening during surgery to reduce anxiety and pain
This study tests whether listening to music around the time of surgery can lower anxiety and pain, reduce how much pain medicine you need, and improve satisfaction. You may be asked to fill out brief questionnaires before and after your procedure.
SingaporeAges 21–70 - NCT03301038RecruitingPhase 2
Rifampin for high blood calcium
This study tests if rifampin, a medicine usually used for infections, can lower high calcium levels in people with a rare genetic condition affecting vitamin D. It might help reduce symptoms like kidney stones or bone pain.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 6 months–70 years - NCT03369353Enrolling by invitation
Personalized immune testing study for bowel and transplant patients
This study looks at whether a precise lab test can help understand inflammatory bowel disease, functional gut disorders, and immune changes after stem cell transplant or cell therapy. It may help doctors choose better monitoring and treatments based on your immune and gut test results.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT03175471Recruiting
MRI study of blood-vessel and tissue signs in child liver disease
This trial uses MRI scans to look for “biomarkers,” which are measurable signs in the liver, to better understand autoimmune liver diseases in children and teens. It may help doctors track disease and improve care by finding imaging patterns linked to illness.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6–23 - NCT03102554Enrolling by invitation
Study genes in sex development differences and hypospadias
This study looks for genetic causes of differences in how a baby or child’s sex organs develop, including hypospadias. You may be able to join if doctors can’t find a reason using standard testing.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT03059420Recruiting
Genetic study of strabismus and certain birth eye-movement disorders
This study looks for genetic (inherited DNA) causes of strabismus (eyes that don’t line up) and certain birth conditions that affect eye movement and brainstem/cranial nerves. Your participation may help researchers better understand these conditions and guide future testing and care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 1 day+ - NCT03178630Recruiting
MRI scans to track outcomes in children with autoimmune liver disease
This study uses MRI scans to find “biomarkers,” or imaging clues, that may help predict how autoimmune liver conditions will progress in children and young adults. If you qualify, you may get MRI imaging to see whether it relates to future health outcomes.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6–23 - NCT03107520RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Ultrasound during hip surgery to check blood flow
This early-phase study tests a special ultrasound with an added contrast medicine (Lumason) during surgery for babies with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). It aims to better see blood flow at the time of surgery, which may help guide and improve care.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 4 months–2 years - NCT02735824Recruiting
Genetic study of immune problems in children
This study looks for new genetic causes of immune system conditions that can run in families. If you join, researchers will collect health information (and usually samples) from children with immune concerns and from close relatives for comparison.
